Richard Flores

Principles for Discussion:

1. Ruthlessly prioritize: Say no to the things that either keep me from my highest priorities or don’t fulfill me
2. Be present: give my full attention to whatever activity is at hand (family, work, church, etc.)
3. Defend my family: these are the relationships that will last forever, don’t let other things get in the way
4. Take care of myself, then forget myself: my own health and wellness is paramount; but then, “forget yourself and go to work”
